Homosexuality

[JesusFreak offline]

...........Excuse me while I laugh hysterically.

Do you have any idea what the divorce rate looks like in America? And who are you to say that people should be forced to stay in wedlock when their relationship is terrible? There are so many factors that you ignore.

What happens if a single parent decides to adopt? According to you, they've done nothing 'wrong.' And yet somehow, they have no right to raise children? I question your line of thinking.

Yes, I do. THat's why I said It's unlikely that's gonna happen.

I didn't say they had no right to raise children. I said there would be difficulties.

So you deny that there are Kids of single parents with issues?


And Baby monkeys aren't baby humans, first of all. second of all, its not just babies here Im talking about.



Okay, Love is not entirely what counts. Too much affection and too little discipline equals a spoiled brat.

[Carth]

Well, it's the way nature intended, for two people, male and female, to raise the child. Of course, as humans, we're better than nature anyway. At least to ourselves.

And just to say something...the opinion of the Church has no real place in this thread, because the Church is not a member of this forum. (I'll bet one sixty-fourth of my soul that someone will go and change their name to The Church after this and act all sarcastically holy. Heh.) It's not as much about what the Church thinks, but about what you think.

And about the marriage thing. That's why marriage is a BIG DECISION. You have to make sure this is someone you can WORK WITH, and not just some random looker you met at a bar. (Relationship Rule #2- It is not a good idea to marry anyone you met at a bar.) It kinda disgruntles me when people show a lack of judgement like that.

*puts a kitteh on YDV's head* Calm down. We're not trying to start fights here. Right...?

[YDV offline]

*sigh* I'm not fighting, I'm debating. There's a difference. I'm not really mad.

Let's just agree to disagree, shall we? Cuz this argument never goes anywhere and I doubt it's going to here. :/ Opinions are out now, and that was pretty much the point of this thread.

[Carth]

True.

...

We need a General Discussion thread that isn't about world issues.

*goes off to make one*

[JesusFreak offline]

yeah, were debating, and that means lotsa slanted statistics and misquoted studies on both sides!

j/k


one more thing: Children with distatn or single parent homes are more likely to have behavioral issues. Okay, enough from me. Go ahead and put yer view in and we can all shaddap. deal?

[knifey offline]

True.

Yeah I'm done now. :/

That's the second time you've said it, so yeah.
Second of all: I can't remember everything I read's source, but I can say its not Wikipedia.
Third: Look at the African-American ganssta stuff. then look at the out of Wedlock rate.


Shutting up. *goes to Christians thread*


EDIT: ack! I have to make a disclaimer: Not all African-Americans are involved with gangsta stuff or born out of wedlock.



I had to put this in before I'm labeled a racist.

That's yer rebuttall?


I live near Detroit. does that count as proof of evidence?

[YDV offline]

No it doesn't.

And be careful with those big words.

[JesusFreak offline]

Refute: to deny the truth of something, especially by presenting arguments that disprove it

Rebuttal: see refute.

[YDV offline]

Oho, you can use a dictionary. That's special. <3

Yeah in case you haven't noticed, I was done quite a few posts ago.

[JesusFreak offline]

I didn't use the dictionary. I AM THE DICTIONARY! Sorta.


Yeah, sorry. Shutting up


before that,

ad hominum: a debate strategy that focuses on attacks on the opposing debater instead of the issues.


EDIT: meant to say on, not of.

<I>House - "Rational arguments don't usually work on religious people. Otherwise, there would be no religious people."</I>

*too lazy to use BBCode to quote*

Now, despite that, why is it that people of the same sex live together as a couple that heterosexual people can have?

Because God says so?

Because some people assume that not having even distribution of both sexes will cause unbalance?

Yeah, I'm sure the fact that the gansters do stupid things like rob people and discriminate have <I>nothing</I> to do with the child's unbalance in growing up.

On House's quote: Yeah sure. Don't let a fossil record that doesn't support evolution, the fact that the Second Law of Thermo dynamics states that nothing can exsist forever, and the exact placement of the Earth's orbit around the Sun fool you, life is pointless.

On the issue. Because of the original model of Family. There was Adam and Eve, not Adam and Evan.


On gangsters: Well, to be fair, it also has to do with society glorifying violence an dstuff like that.

[YDV offline]

On this thread: Can we be done nao?

[JesusFreak offline]

Yeah. Im done.

[knifey offline]

On the issue. Because of the original model of Family. There was Adam and Eve, not Adam and Evan.

Yep. Because God thinks it's ugly. That's totally not discrimination. So I guess they aren't allowed to express their love for one another and stay away from the church, huh?

Are you still debating? I said Im done.

[matsumo itsu offline]

sure, i mean who really cares.It's their choice weather they get married.

[mitchmcmichael offline]

IMO I think being gay is a sin but it's their choice.

[JesusFreak offline]

Usually, most sins are choices.

[ConcreteAngel offline]

here's a thing on gay marriage.
